May Sales and Deals

It looks like so many would-be buyers rushed to get the tax credit before it expired at the end of April that not that many were left around in May. The number of contracts signed in the towns this blog covers was certainly down quite a bit last month. Nonetheless, a few Hot Properties got lucky and a number made it all the way. The Bedford Corners house was previously engaged back in February 2010, but evidently that deal fell through. Let's hope the second time is the charm.

Its amazing that the Montrose brick house only sold for about 13% less than its fist asking price back in 2007! Either the asking was low for the market then or the sale price is high.

The Ossining house was a great deal. I love that place!
